Quanto sia dannosa la gola.
How harmful greed is.
Il Topo avezzo a roder le vivande,
Un di mal di mangiar satio e contento
Un’Ostriga
trovo capace e
grande,
Che a caso tenea aperto il monumento.
Ei v’entra
audace, e
cerca in quelle bande:
Ella tosto si chiude, e’l
serra drento.
Cosi la
gola’che
meschin condusse,
A perpetua prigion sciocco l’addusse.

In garrulum & gulosum.
Against a noisy and gluttonous fellow
LXXXII [=83] .
Voce boat torva, praelargo est gutture, rostrum
Instar habet nasi multiforisque tubae.
Deformem rabulam, addictum ventrique gulaeque
Signabit, volucer cùm truo pictus erit.
It screams with a harsh cry, it has an enormous throat, a beak like a spout or a many-holed trumpet. The pelican bird, when painted, will indicate an ugly ranter, enslaved to lust and belly.
